This afternoon, I went out after work and started to trim and prune the potted plants on my deck and found that one of my tomato plants is wilting. Basically its wilting at the top leaves. In researching this on the internet, I've found both underwatering and overwatering as a cause,as well as a few soil bourne diseases such as Fusarium and Verticillium Wilts. As soon as I saw the wilted tomato, I watered it so I'm hopng that this time its due to underwater. My tomatoes are in pots so I would think they would tend to dry out faster than they would become waterlogged, and although we've had lots of rain this spring, the past few days have been sunny and clear. Today was a high of 82 degrees.

While outside on the deck tonight I pruned quite a few of the bottom leaves off the tomatos, so they have air circulation down toward the roots. I noticed a few plants have little tomatos forming on them. The fruits are forming on my "Sweet 100" Cherry tomato plants. I trimmed the blossoms off the cilantro, as I love to cut the fresh leaves for cooking, and I also trimmed up all the petunias so all the faded flowers that are or will go to seed have been removed. I pinch the ends of the variegated Ivy to encourage it to spread and get fuller. I gave the lobelia a hair cut and its rewarding me with tons of lovely blue blooms. Other than my wilted tomato, things are looking good out there.
